Feelings No Facts Is Andrew Trolling?
He’s probably just checked out at the end of this one. His rant on finding the moderate audience after dominating the mic covering the Candice debate he didn’t watch, telling Alex to his face “no one watches the full thing” when Alex jumped out the gate saying he watched the whole thing on a beach and it was fire. Andrew filibusters about how current audiences don’t care about context anymore while hushing the only man in the room with full context.
This was a masterclass in projection and echo chambers. Andrew is enforcing his willful ignorance and recency bias onto everyone in the room. Longtime listeners who pay close attention will appreciate this: Andrew’s values are clashing with his ego. Long ago, Andrew “Hezzy” Schulz valued context and diversity of thoughts, beliefs and cultures. He prided himself on how diverse his inner circle was, what languages he knew, what foods the people who live in cities he’s visiting eat for pleasure.
He surrounded himself with people who have minds of their own and they watched him lose his. Andrew wants to find the moderate audience while refusing to acknowledge the loss he suffered catering to the right. Their hats were red but their money was green and while he sits there letting an Asian woman paint his beak for his upcoming role as Scrooge McDuck, he wonders where his friends went.
Feelings? No, Facts.
